pacejunkie punk Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Dirty Pirate Hookers are now the Coverups and they’ve announced a show this Monday! Who can go and give a full report? Guys, this could be a Green Day secret show. Isn’t anybody else freaking out about this?!
nick. Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Green Day has always been a band with lots of influences and styles so it would be no surprise to me if they or just Billie Joe, are starting another side project. This has me really excited. Best case scenario it’s a new side project with new music, worst case scenario it’s a cover band. Still not bad though!
Christian's Inferno! Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 I'm not freaking out until I actually know more about what this is and what the Dirty Pirate Hookers / The Coverups are. Are they Green Day? Are they just Billie and other people we don't know? Are they actually related to GD or anybody in GD? Are they just an unknown band that Billie is supporting? I'm more confused than excited. But as soon as there's something to be excited about, yeah I'll freak out!
Mato Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 ^^worst case scenario is that it doesn't have anything to do with GD members, which I presume is, unfortunately the case ;(

Then we fans discovered it and put it out there about a week ago. After I posted about it, he changed the name to The Coverups that day. It seemed like a joke like he was covering up this little account, calling themselves “a cover band that takes no requests”. Curious that both Christmas and New Years Billie (both with and without the rest of Green Day) did shows that were all covers. Now another show is announced. He’s been having a great time doing covers so if he wanted to do it again this little account is a perfect one to use to leak it. The question is, will ot include Mike and Tre or other friends? But I have to imagine Billie is involved at the very least. ETA: The club is right near Gilman Street. He’s absolutely a part of this.
Billie Joes Eyelids Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Well this is certainly an interesting turn of events. That’s all I’m saying for now, but will be watching closely. I think it is time for a new side project.
lizziebix Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 I'm excited to hear more about this. @desertrose any chance you can go?

Billie Joes Eyelids Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Adrienne liked the post, for whatever that’s worth.
Karol Oliveira Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Broken Guitars also liked the post and posted about it on Facebook. This is exciting!
stories and songs Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 This is really exciting. I'm hoping they actually will be performing covers — I always think their covers are great and would love to hear them take on other songs.
Montclare Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Billie did ask us if we were ready for a FBHT show.

JellyTime Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 I find it hilarious that fans were like "they're just messing around, it doesn't mean anything" about this instagram account and now Billie's like "surprise motherfuckers!" So it can be either a band playing covers or cover up for Green Day Spoiler I still remember what @LaughingClock said about unexpected shows
Guest Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 What would be an appropriate time to show up to a venue this small?
Jesus of Seneca Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 *potential* NEW SIDE PROJECT!?! HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's about damn time

Marki. Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Ooooh I love that this has actually turned into something exciting, I can't wait for more info! I hope the whole thing's not just a joke they're playing on us
Chin for a Day Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 If you look on the Ivy Rooms website, this show is not listed. Nothing is listed on that day. So this is either a joke or a private event.
